Representation Summary:

50 Years ago when I moved to Doe Bank Lane my next door neighbour said ‘you do know they are going to build over there’, pointing to the fields opposite. Well rumours have come and gone over the years. I hope this council will keep everything as it is in this area.
[Photo of children in Pheasey, 1947] Views of Pheasey from Stanhope Way before the building of houses and roads covered this area in the 1950s. The green fields were lost including a beautiful bluebell wood which stood in the area of Bonnington Way. On the plus side homes and schools were provided for people desperate for housing after the war. We do not need this devastation to happen again.
